Nope, you'll have to paint them yourself.

Just have you LHS remove them, take the steel out. Properly prep the holder, and use something along the lines of Krylon paint to do it. Shoud resist chipping fairly well if done right, and it will look badass in the end.

I just taped off my boot, and the steel. I didnt take out the steel or take the holder off. If you tape it off properly, just have the holder exposed than it will be fairly easy. Mine turned out pretty nice.

A friend of mine painted his holders chrome on his 8090s. It looks as gay as it sounds!! ;) The black holders look sick though! Nice job.

I called Krylon and they said that the Fusion is the way to go and all depending on your style of black. Flat Black #2519 or Satin #2421. I'm going to do this tonight. Thanks for the info above.

how many coats have to be put on to prevent chippage? or is there some kind of clear coat that i can put on it?

also where can i get some of the krylon, home depot, lowes, online?

[A2rhino 63]

I ordered it from Sherwin Williams. Be sure to give them the color code #s. Not sure about how many coats. I'm guessing 2-3????

sherwinwilliams.com?

is that the web adress?

[Project_2501 0]

Ever hear of google?

[A2rhino 63]

Not sure, I called the local Sherwin Willims store in town. Krylon has a store locator on their site or you can just call them.
